TASK :
Consider a 2X1 MISO system. It is assumed that the channels between the transmitter and
the receiver are independent, identically distributed and Rayleigh faded. Consider that the
target rate R = 1 bit/sec and the transmitting SNR increases from 1 dB to 10 dB . Design
a simulation model to investigate the outage performance for MRC and SC diversity
techniques. Compare the performance for both the techniques.

THEORY:
MISO:
MISO (multiple input, single output) is an antenna technology for wireless communications in
which multiple antennas are used at the source (transmitter). The antennas are combined to
minimize errors and optimize data speed. The destination (receiver) has only one antenna.
MISO is one of several forms of smart antenna technology, the others being MIMO (multiple
input, multiple output) and SIMO (single input, multiple output).
In conventional wireless communications, a single antenna is used at the source, and
another single antenna is used at the destination. In some cases, this gives rise to problems
with multipath effects. When an electromagnetic field (EM field) is met with obstructions such
as hills, canyons, buildings, and utility wires, the wave fronts are scattered, and thus they
take many paths to reach the destination. The late arrival of scattered portions of the signal
causes problems such as fading, cut-out (cliff effect), and intermittent reception (picket
fencing). In digital communications systems such as wireless Internet, it can cause a
reduction in data speed and an increase in the number of errors. The use of two or more
antennas, along with the transmission of multiple signals (one for each antenna) at the
source, can reduce the trouble caused by multipath wave propagation.
MISO technology has widespread applications in digital television (DTV), wireless local area
networks (WLANs), metropolitan area networks (MANs), and mobile communications.
